 EXPANDING MINDSET   

 

Fireworks-2048x1365

Seventy-Five Summers

Talk to anyone in my family, and they’ll tell you that I’m wild about the 4th of July. Not in a decorate the house in bunting kind of way, but in being part of the quintessential American Independence Day celebration. I have lots of options in my hometown since both Williamsburg and Yorktown, Virginia, hold huge fireworks displays attended by tens of thousands each year. One in the colonial capital and one on the battlefield where we won the Revolutionary War. My kids all remember being dragged to one event or the other over the years, sweating like a pig, eating ice cream and hot dogs, and seeing their dad tear up when the fireworks started.
